In ancient irish tongue SE when followed by a A make a SH noise. SHAWN is just an american bastardization made popular when non-irish began to use the name. Same goes for Shaun. So there you have it, i spell my name the right way.
YES! My brother's name is Seamus (also Irish) and everyone thinks either that its pronounced See-mous or that it should be spelt Shamus.

I've never seen Seamus spelled any other way. Stupid Americanization.
